You ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
So, I was thinking…
In my future recipe posts, would you be interested in seeing more photos of the process, as opposed to just the final product? Would that be at all helpful?
I’m warning you: the recipe-process photos won’t be pretty. I usually cook in my very tiny and very dark kitchen. And if I’m not there, I’m in my parents’ much bigger—but just as dark!—kitchen.
You know those gorgeous white kitchens you see on Pinterest?
Yeah, so not my kitchen.
Above, unfinished Copycat Peanut Butter Eggs.
And by “unfinished” I obviously mean “not yet covered in chocolate.” However, this didn’t stop me from eating one two of the eggs straight off the piece of parchment paper. Really, can you blame me?
And what’s this?
Why, it’s a giant ball of unshaped peanut butter dough.
Did I say my “in process” photos were ugly? I take it back! ![]()
This looks like a painting.
An edible painting.
Peanut butter art?
Oh Van Gogh, you know you’re jealous.
I also made this for you:
If you get a chance, please do check out the above link and let me know: Are the step-by-step photos helpful? Would you like to see more of them in future posts? Or are they as ugly as I cautioned and you’d rather use your imagination? (Be honest!)
And sorry about all my weirdo commentary in this post. One too many glasses of wine last night.
Or perhaps it was all the reeses eggs…
















never apologize for drinking wine 🙂
also, step by step photos are always helpful
I guess I’m the first person to say I don’t think the step-by-step photos are necessary for a majority of your recipes. Your recipes are mostly “I put it in the magic bullet and blended it” (don’t get me wrong, I love the ease of it!)… but I think that’s pretty self explanatory. Plus, I’m not a huge fan of having to scroll down a lot on a post. I’d rather be able to read it all on one screenshot.
I also enjoy seeing the process photos…even if it aint pretty.
I LOVE step-by-step instructions with pictures!! Makes me more confident to try the recipes myself and that’s always a good (I mean delicious) thing 😉
Your photos look great to me! I love seeing the process, and really enjoy your blog and recipes:)
step by step pics DEFINITELY! videos next!
I think I would like step by step pics when it’s a complicated recipe. But I LOVE your ‘Van Gogh’ pic…totally can go in a gallery!!
Starry Starry Peanut Butter 🙂
I really like step-by-step photos, as long as the recipe itself is also consolidated at the bottom.
I LOVE the idea of step-by-step photos! Sometimes when I read a recipe I’m not sure if I am executing it correctly, the process photos would really take the “guessing” out of the recipe.
I look forward to seeing more! 🙂
Yes very helpful I love food blogs that show the step by step process. These look really really yummy too.
